Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I do the NPPL course?
The Humber Flying Club is registered with the CAA and
will be promoting this course.
How many hours is the NPPL course?
32 hours plus tests (navigation skill test and general
handling skill test).
Do I need a JAR - FCL medical?
No. You need a certificate of fitness to be signed
by your GP. There are 2 levels, the first at DVLA car driver level
and the second at HGV driver level. We recommend you to go for a JAR
medical if you intend to eventually qualify for a higher pilot licence.
Can I get a credit for previous flying experience?
Yes, from both gliding and microlighting.
How much will the new licence cost?
£132, payable to the CAA.
How long is the licence valid for?
Life, subject to the re-validation requirements.
Can I fly to France using my NPPL?
No. The privileges of the NPPL are restricted to the
UK airspace system.
Is the NPPL valid anywhere else in the world ?
Not at the moment but it is probably only a matter of
time before other countries recognise it.
Can I join a flying group or own an aircraft?
Yes, but if the aircraft weight is more than 2000 kg or has more than
1 engine, you cannot fly it.
What about aircraft with variable pitch props or retractable undercarriage?
So long as the aircraft’s weight does not exceed 2000 kg you
can undergo differences training which qualifies you to fly more complex
single engined types.
Can I upgrade to a JAR - FCL PPL?
Yes. 30 hours can be carried over as a credit.
Can I fly by night or in IMC?
No. The new licence is to fly by day in good weather.
Minimum VFR visibility will be 5 km and Special VFR will be 10 km.
If I have not flown for some time, can I revalidate ?
Yes. No flying between 2 and 5 years - training and testing at the
discretion of the FTO.
No flying over 5 years - a short course of training plus test.
